What reading level is Speech Free Territories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Order must be established in the islands. Until this is done no free government can be given to them. Whatever juris- diction may ultimately assume control there, our obligation is the same. We must secure to the Philippines that free govern- ment promised and guaranteed on our sacred honor to Ciiba. We began the war against Spain for freedom; we must end it for freedom.
Did we acquire legitimate and complete sovereignty over the Philippine Islands by the treaty of peace between Spain and the U...nited States? Did sovereignty become ours by conquest or by consent? The treaty itself precludes the idea that we acquired any sovereign right in the islands by conquest. The interpretation by the commissioners of the treaty repudiates the idea of acquisi- tion by conquest. If we claimed by conquest, our claim could attach only to the conquered territory— Manila and a contiguous portion of the island of Luzon. If we obtained any title, it was by cession for the consideration of $20, 000, 000. Spain did not assume to communicate to us complete sovereign rights in the archipelago.
